My youngest brothers good friend bought a 2013 Escape new and drove it for 95,000 miles over 4 years with just a few issues but they were major issues. I did that again daily to get nowhere but in the process in December the vehicle broke down and now requires a new engine as the spark plug came out of one of the cylinders and now no compression after repair. I need to call the manager to make arrangements. After contacting the dealership several times they finally agreed to replace my vehicle. One of them recommended I notify the dealership and ask them to remedy the problem, After calling the dealership DAILY (it’s 3 hours from me), leaving messages and never getting anywhere I went online to the NH BBB. I brought to a second collision place and was told the same results, both will put this in writing. On the drivers side there is a collision sticker for a shop in the same area I bought the car. I hit a deer the week I bought it and when I went to the collision center, the gentleman showed me how the passenger side door post was bent and the inside of the passenger door has Bondo coming out all around it. Salesman told me it had one owner before me and was never in a collision. I do not think this vehicle is worth replacing the motor unless Ford steps up fixes this design flaw.ĭoes anyone know of any class action suites? Some mechanics i have spoken with think either antifreeze has seeped into the engine seizing it or the turbo booster has gone bad sending metal into the engine. Based on all the complaints with this vehicle, I am worried the Ford dealer will charge me a lot of money for a problem that Ford has created with this motor. I called Ford Customer Service and I am waiting for them to get back to me. I called Haldamen Ford in Hamilton NJ but they never heard of this type of problem and I would have to tow the vehicle in for analysis. The vehicle will not start and not try to start. Each time I tried to start the vehicle all I would get is a clunk type noise once. When I turned the key the dashboard lit as usual but I heard a clunk type noise again and the vehicle failed to start. I let the vehicle parked over night and tried to start it the next morning. I tried again and the vehicle started as it always had except this time a heavy smoke poured from the tailpipes and the engine light came on.
